I'm Back(?) but not at 100%
(I will be deleting this post a week after it is posted)
I'm writing this scared and I hope by reading this you all will understand why. I'm just gonna get straight to the point. about a week after my last post my home was broken into. My sister and myself were assaulted which resulted in me breaking my right forearm and thumb forcing me to wear a cast for 7 weeks. My sister ended up breaking her ankle. This was done by her ex-husband and his friend who decided it would be smart to help him...
my nephew is fine. He's safe and completely unharmed which is a good thing. My sister and I on the other hand are kind of mentally not 100% we've been going through family therapy together.
during the breakin, honestly I dont know what they thought the final result would be or why they thought it would have been a good idea in the first place. All I know is that he pleaded insanity and completely lost all forms of custody as well as we have a very nice restraining order against him. Anyway, during the breakin my $3k work PC was destroyed and I lost most of my work. That includes the 1080p MHF update and a lot of the sidework I've been working on(comics).
During our recovery my sister and I up and moved to a different part of the country. I returned to my old job of long haul trucking but even that is takings its mental toll since it's forcing me to be away from home for so long giving my sister and I anxiety. We're currently living paycheque to paycheque which is fine, I'm just honestly glad we're okay, all things considered.
Last week I ended up buying a new prebuilt computer. I missed MHF, and the comics I was working on so I bought a cheap prebuilt during blackfriday week and finally found the time to set it up. I'll be going through my backup hard drive which hadn't been updated for a while so I dont know what's on it. I usually update the backup every 2-3 months. I know that I have the assets used for the model of all my girls, which is great. I just dont know where along the timeline that is exactly between my last backup and what would be up to date.
DISCORD
I no longer have access to the discord for SWP. I dont think I ever wrote down the password for that discord or the email associated for it since it was stored on my old PC. So I'm going to have to make a new one soon.
The New PC
The new PC is nowhere near as strong or as fast as my old build. the last build I built by hand and it cost me around $3K to make. This one is just a $1,300 off the shelf prebuild. Compared to my old one, it's still an AMD but it only has 16G ram. The GPU is 4000 series but not too much memory. I'm gonna be slow for a bit, I'm hoping to save money in order to rebuild my old PC.
What Now?
Honestly, I dont know how to move forward for here. But I do know that I'll be spending my days off going through my backup drive and assessing where I am and how I can move forward from here. I'll be posting an update post on the weekend where I am content wise. It's been a long ass time since I last used Daz, so I'll be taking some time to refresh myself on that end.
Other than that, all I can say is I'm sorry it took so long. I've just been scared to post anything or do anything really. My sister and I have just been keeping to ourselves, sitting on the couch watching tv or playing on the PS5 whenever I'm home. Even this past thanksgiving was a bit too much for my sister and I. Our dad and aunt came to visit to make sure we were okay, but just having people in our home was too much, even if they were family.
Again, I'm sorry it took so long.
SWP.
